► Description: |
Filled with fish-tested designs as well
as carving and painting techniques, this
guide provides instructions for creating a
variety of fresh and saltwater lures.
Exploring the science of catching
fish—what colors and shapes fish are
attracted to and how to replicate them—the
handbook tells which lure designs will
attract which type of fish. Outlining the
difference between surface, floating,
diving, and sinking lures, this manual
offers full-sized carving patterns and
step-by-step demonstrations. Additional
information about hardware, hooks, and
jointed lures is also included, as is
an elaborate gallery of historic and
contemporary wooden lures. For the active
fisherman, fishing lure collector, or the
crafty carver and painter, this full-color
handbook provides more than 20 projects to
make and use.
